I'm hoping for an alternative to wireless networking in my house. My PS3 gets a crap signal and the laptop is useless upstairs.

What powerline networking options do the resident tech guys suggest? Keeping in mind that I want two connections and I would love to keep this under $150.

I remembered seeing it but I could find it in a search. I'll try again.

I bought these. No complaints. I have a cable modem and computer located upstairs, and a PS3 and Wii located in the basement (separated by a main level). I use PlayOn software on my PS3 and Netflix movies stream wonderfully - I usually pause it for a minute or two and then the entire movie plays back flawlessly. I don't play too many games online but Street Fighter IV seems to work good.
